To create some depth, I finished by sponging the edges of the canvas with black ink. The background is ready.

I hope you will join me tomorrow, I will show you how to make a house flower on the canvas!

Leandra Says: it looks beautiful, the images on the tissue blend in so well! Love the painty layers.

Gillian Says: The collaged tissue background looks awesome, love the subtleness of the layered paint. can't wait to see where you go with this tomorrow.

Thank you for sharing so many details on how you build up the background. Very impressive to see how much work goes onto that. You ended up having a fabolous background. Looking forward to see the result tomorrow.Thanks again...Hugs from SPAIN

Wow, this is gorgeous Liesbeth and I actually loved it before you put the whitewash layer over everything too but of course that would be no good as the background as it would overpower the gorgeous flower to come. Thanks for the detailed layer by layer instructions & photos. They must have taken a lot of time to do.
